I cant bekieve that you expect Trinity to change its policy of giving hungry people some food. People in all stages of recovery need food. Wake up and smell the coffee.
by the way, the way you emphasize the word "guests" speaks volumes. deb former ap resident (i live 5 minutes away and attend Trinity) current property owner on the park -----Original Message----- From: Paul Vail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com Sent: Mon, 22 Oct 2007 12:01 pm Subject: [AsburyPark] Library Park Residents are not going to be able to get a handle on Library Park until Trinity Church changes it's policy. Currently Trinity Church runs a food pantry several days a week and a soup kitchen on Saturday. Most of the people using the program are truly in need and the church does a good job reaching out to them. However, the church also gives hand outs to substance abusers who loiter in Library Park and make life miserable for for those who live in the vicinity. Residents should lobby the church to change it's policy. A small percentage of Trinity's "guests" have no respect for public & private property. In my view, the church has a responsibilty not to allow its guests to ruin the quality of life in our neighborhood. The church should identify who these people are and direct them to the substance abuse programs they really need. ________________________________________________________________________ Email and AIM finally together.
